What to do with XAMPP/MAMP/WAMP questions

Question

It's generally known that it's a horrible idea to use these one-click LAMP stack installers for anything but local development. That said, with surprising regularity, we seem to get questions from people that are trying to use these in production. The vast majority of these users fall into the category where they should be migrated to SU, but often times that doesn't happen.

It would be quite nice if we could come to a concensus as to how to handle these questions.

My thoughts are thus:

1. If it's obvious that the Q is better suited for SU, then migrate it there.
2. If there's a chance that it's being used in a professional capacity, but they're trying to use it for production, then close it as a dupe of a yet-to-be-created canonical "Why *AMPP shouldn't be used in production" question.
3. If it doesn't match 1 or 2, then answer the question as appropriate.

Answer 1

I like the second option, as long as I don't have to write an answer to the canonical question (there's no way any answer I wrote would pass the "be polite" test...) I'd certainly participate in a V2Cathon (even of piles and piles of old questions).

Answer 2

While I strongly agree with both the question and Womble's answer there's an annoying part of my mind that wants to warn against us getting too dictatorial in regard to what we will accept as professional behavior when it comes to things like this. I personally don't believe that AMP should be used for a production environment but I also don't know everybody's circumstances.

Playing the Devil's advocate: I can however imagine a situation where an admin with no prior experience in the area is required to set up a web server and chooses one of these prepackaged methods because he/she believes it's the quickest and simplest way to get started while, rightly or wrongly, believing that issues like basic security have already been "built-in".

Is it our place to reject the question out of hand simply because it's not the way we would do things? Is it really so severely unprofessional? Once we go down that road, where will it take us?
